Once every 34 attempts.

I didn't look specifically, but it may be the lowest rate in the league for a starting QB. Its at least among the lowest. Of the starters the lowest number of sacks for the year is 8 or 9 and he is passing more than them, more attempts

I did not look up prior years, but I am guessing that is much improved, since it seemed like before he was getting hit or pressure about every other attempt

You are correct - our sack rate is lowest in the league (2.92%).
Second lowest is Pittsburg at 3.37% (10 sacks in 297 attempts)
For context, League average is 7.02%
Worst is San Fran at a whopping 12.02% (31 sacks in 258 attempts). When do we get to play them?

Last year, the Colts sack rate was - are you ready for this - 11.5% (56 sacks in 487 attempts). Crazy.
